Questions & Answers about Fabrikada montaj bitince işçiler birlikte dinleniyor.
How does bitince translate to "as soon as ... finishes"?
It combines the verb root bit- (to finish) with the suffix -ince. The -ince (or -ınca, -unca, -ünce) suffix adds the meaning of "when" or "as soon as" the action happens. Because it attaches directly to the verb, you do not need a separate word for "when".
Why use the present continuous dinleniyor if the English translation is the simple present "rest"?
In Turkish, the present continuous suffix -iyor is frequently used for daily routines and general habits, not just actions happening right now. It is perfectly natural to use dinleniyor to express what the workers regularly do after finishing the assembly.
How do the suffixes in işçiler work?
The root is iş (work). The -çi suffix is a profession maker, so işçi means "worker". Finally, the plural suffix -ler is added to make it "workers".
Does the word birlikte (together) contain a location suffix?
Yes! The base word is birlik, which means "unity". The locative suffix -te (meaning "in" or "at") is added because of consonant harmony, so birlikte literally translates to "in unity".
